 You don't necessarily need to switch user-config.jam.
You can use the requirements argument to control which
library is selected for a particular build variant:

using lzma : 5.2.3 : <search>... <include>... : <address-model>32 ;

  You can configure it from the command line with
LZMA_INCLUDE/LZMA_LIBRARY_PATH.

  Yeah, that would be nice, wouldn't it?  There's
documentation zlib and bzip2 via b2 --help zlib, but
that doesn't really help for lzma.
